A slow man shall say, A lion is withoutforth; I shall be slain in the midst of the streets.
The way of slow men is as an hedge of thorns; the way of just [or rightwise] men is without [thing of] hurting.
Sloth bringeth in sleep; and a negligent soul shall have hunger.
The eyes of the Lord keep knowing; and the words of a wicked man be deceived.
I have unclothed me of my coat; how shall I be clothed therein? I have washed my feet; how shall I defoul them?
